Don't make me change myself for you

Don't gaslight me to follow what you do

Don't think that whatever you do is right

Don't try to keep me chained, alright?

When we became closer, should have seen

The red lights glowing round you clean

The toxicity you mask behind your smile

To discover that side, it took me a while

You made me depend too much on you

I didn't know what I was getting into

If only I knew your cunning true face

Wouldn't have visited such a dark place

A strong struggle to get out of your grasp

Was stuck in your hold in a tight clasp

Without you around I felt out of control

You had taken over my heart and soul

Pressure only makes a diamond stronger

Your behavior doesn't affect me any longer

Only makes me regret how I misjudged you

And lost a part of myself in the process too

-Niki

I hope everyone is doing alright and taking good care of themselves
